diverseyboats Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 So.... I have each piece of my LR in separate buckets trying to isolate the clicking that has been keeping my wife up for nights... Thank you Tampa Bay Saltwater, by the way.... The removal of Mantis 1 ended in death. Number 2 went to a buddy of mine. When I find number 3, and manage not to end his little clicking life, anyone want him for the cost of shipping plus a donation to the dead peppermint shrimps fund? Here little mantis.....mantis mantis... Look at the yummy shrimp on this very natural looking bamboo skewer... Link to comment
diverseyboats Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 OK - now we're going on an hour. Every rock out expect the one with my anemone. I keep hearing clicks but can't locate!!! Link to comment
tam Posted April 26, 2013 Share Posted April 26, 2013 Hammer time! Have you tried pouring rodi water onto the rock in question? Hardy little buggers, they are. Link to comment
diverseyboats Posted April 26, 2013 Author Share Posted April 26, 2013 RODI has gotten me two small crabs and a baby something. Now my tank is completely torn down except for one rock that has my anemone... the only redeeming piece of TBS at this point. The clicks I heard from the buckets have stopped, but I have no prize... 2.5 hours... Link to comment
MeepNand Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I might be able to take him. Link to comment
Acielot Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I will take it should asid not be able to. The 10 gallon is almost ready If you catch it alive that is Link to comment
diverseyboats Posted April 30, 2013 Author Share Posted April 30, 2013 Well, I "caught" one mantis and a baby pistol, unfortunately, neither survived the catching process So I had 5 pieces of LR in 5 separate buckets for 3 days.... Never heard a SINGLE click... Put the rock back into the tank? Click!!! But the frequency is not nearly as bad... never at night and only a little during the day. Not sure which variety it is, but I'm NOT going to tear the thing down again unless I have to. What an ordeal! Link to comment
Deleted User 3 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I would have chucked the rock outside by now, way to go. lol Link to comment
